Abstract

Abstract A solid state image pick-up device is provided in which a photoelectric conversion element is configured so that a light reception portion of the photoelectric conversion element is covered with a member of light transmissible glass. A frame, used as a package, is filled with synthetic resin by a potting method, and the synthetic resin is solidified so that the frame, the peripheral portions of the glass member, and the photoelectric conversion element are integrally combined with each other. By so doing, the light transmission property of the photoelectric element can be properly made, excellent moisture resistance can be obtained, and improved reliability of the device results.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim 165 words
A solid state image pickup device comprising: a copper-plated laminated plate; photoelectric conversion means having a light reception portion and attached to said copper-plated laminated plate for performing photoelectric conversion corresponding to a quantity of light incident on said light reception portion; a frame integrated with said copper-plated laminated plate, and having an area substantially smaller than that of said plate, and arranged so as to surround said photoelectric conversion means; external connection terminals fixed to said copper-plated laminated plate at locations both within and without an area surrounded by said frame, first circuit patterns on said plate and originating at external connection terminals at locations without said area surrounded by said frame, and second circuit patterns on said plate and originating at external connection terminals located within said area surrounded by said frame, and connected to said photoelectric conversion means by bonding wires; and light transmissible means integrated with said frame and arranged to cover said light reception portion of said photoelectric conversion means.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 165 words
A solid state image pickup device comprising: a copper-plated laminated plate; photoelectric conversion means having a light reception portion and attached to said copper-plated laminated plate for performing photoelectric conversion corresponding to a quantity of light incident on said light reception portion; a frame integrated with said copper-plated laminated plate, and having an area substantially smaller than that of said plate, and arranged so as to surround said photoelectric conversion means; external connection terminals fixed to said copper-plated laminated plate at locations both within and without an area surrounded by said frame, first circuit patterns on said plate and originating at external connection terminals at locations without said area surrounded by said frame, and second circuit patterns on said plate and originating at external connection terminals located within said area surrounded by said frame, and connected to said photoelectric conversion means by bonding wires; and light transmissible means integrated with said frame and arranged to cover said light reception portion of said photoelectric conversion means.
